ƒHow this is calculated
- Extra amounts go straight to principal in the month you pay them, so interest then accrues on a lower balance.
- Biweekly is modeled as one extra full payment a year, spread evenly (payment ÷ 12 extra each month). Make sure your servicer applies biweekly payments promptly and doesn’t charge a fee.
- Before prepaying, weigh other goals: an emergency fund, high-interest debt and retirement savings.
